Ingredients

  • 3 tablespoons olive oil
  • 2 pounds ground dark-meat turkey
  • 1 large onion, finely chopped
  • 2 minced jalapeno chiles (seeds and ribs removed for less heat, if desired)
  • 1 tablespoon ground cumin
  • Cornmeal Crust
  • Coarse salt and ground pepper
  • 4 cups fresh (from 6 ears) or thawed frozen corn kernels
  • 1 cup shredded Monterey Jack cheese (4 ounces)

Directions

  1. Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Make filling: Heat 2 tablespoons oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. In two batches, brown turkey, stirring occasionally, about 10 minutes. Transfer to a bowl.
  2. Reduce heat to medium. Add remaining tablespoon oil to skillet. Cook onion, jalapeno, and cumin, stirring occasionally, until soft, about 5 minutes; season with 2 teaspoons salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper. Return turkey to pan; stir in tomatoes and corn until combined.
  3. Make Crust. Pour 1/8 of the crust (1/4 cup) into the bottom of each of eight 10- to 12-ounce ramekins. Smooth tops with a spoon; cool 5 minutes. Top each with turkey filling, dividing evenly; sprinkle with cheese.
  4. Bake on a rimmed baking sheet until filling is bubbling and cheese is melted, about 30 minutes.
